Train Strikes, Kills Man On Tracks

Delray Beach police are investigating the death of a man struck by a train Saturday morning.

Police were trying to determine the identity of the victim, a man in his mid-30s.

Officers responded to the 400 block of Northeast Fourth Avenue after a caller reported seeing a man lying across the tracks as a train approached about 8:45 a.m.

The Florida East Coast Railways train may not have been the only train that struck the man, police said. The crash tied up traffic in the area because the train, which was stopped in order for police to investigate, stretched for 16 blocks.
